Monaghan
V.Anderson
Pickersgill

And if any of the following were to get another long-term injury, then I would release them:

Grix
Bridge
L.Anderson

There will be a massive clear out come the end of this season.

It will be nice to see tonie bringing in his own men including coaching staff and conditioner etc.

I too cant believe that jimmie lowes and that nigel hawthorne bloke are still employed at the club. It is clear that they made a monumental balls up of the pre season just gone.

Monas
V Anderson
two obvious ones for me

With Rau due to his age not his perormances. Hicks Maybe

Everyone apart from Morley & Hicks. (then obviously the youngsters like Penny, Riley, Harrison, Pickers etc I'd keep to.)

not that realistic, who would play for us?

i don't think we could very easily go out and fill those gaps

however, in a non-realistic world i agree with all of your choices bar riley, wood, clarke, bridge (on the proviso that someone figures out what to do with his talent) and grix

I think you're being harsh on Paul Wood.

Isn't there a rule to have a certain amount of academy trained players from our club in the first team? Wood's a very decent prop and despite the injuries, he's still a good player and I wouldn't like to see him leave.

hicks has already gone. signed for union.

George is still talking as much rubbish as usual.

Who would have Hicks at 32?

although i agree with the hicks to union being nonsense

To answer your question, rugby union would

This is true.

I admit talking absolute rubbish after 10 pints of stout but the thing about hicks is 100% true.

paddy (who knows his stuff) got a call from a contact of his last night.
